The City of Shasta Lake is undertaking a coordinated, two-phase planning effort to better understand local hazards, reduce risks to residents and infrastructure, and prepare priority projects for future funding and implementation.
The two phases will share data, technical analysis, agency coordination, and community engagement, but each serves a different purpose. Together, they will move the City from understanding community-wide risk to identifying specific projects that can improve public safety and long-term resilience.
This work is fully grant-funded through programs administered by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Although the plans have different purposes, portions of the work will overlap. The City will coordinate data collection, hazard analysis, stakeholder meetings, public workshops, mapping, and community outreach whenever possible. This coordinated approach will reduce duplication and ensure that public input gathered during the HMP helps shape the more detailed projects developed through the Resiliency Plan.
Residents, businesses, property owners, community organizations, and partner agencies will have opportunities to participate throughout both phases and help identify local concerns, community assets, infrastructure needs, and priorities for future investment. The Resiliency Plan’s scope specifically includes inclusive outreach to high-risk neighborhoods and low- and moderate-income residents.
